- scintill76 12y agoMacVim is faster, except when it's not? :P I wonder if the redraw issues were the fault of your terminal emulator rather than vim. I don't have a lot of MacOS experience, though.
- sigzero 12y agoI use MacVim in the Terminal as well as a GUI.
- jzelinskie 12y agoTry putting `set lazyredraw` in your .vimrc
- vectorpush 12y agoTry switching to a different terminal app. I get excellent performance running vim and my entire dev environment in tmux. I also find that the performance is pretty consistent whether I use chrome-ssh, cygwin, gnome-terminal or konsole. Honestly, I'd be surprised if any modern GUI toolkit could compete with a curses app in terms of display performance.
